With the ProFX22, Mackie packs the essential features in a rugged, space-saving, wallet-friendly design.

Complete Control Over Your Mix

Straightforward in design and very easy to use, the ProFX22 puts the most essential features right where you need them, so recording and live gigging is a piece of cake. You get 60 mm faders on each channel and in-line compression on critical inputs to keep levels in check, plus precision 7-band stereo graphic EQ for tuning mains and monitors, and built-in effects for sweetening your sound.

Practical RMFX Effects That You Will Actually Use

Mix with a wealth of professional, awesome-sounding effects courtesy of the unit's Mackie RMFX (Running Man FX) 32-bit effects processor. The ProFX22 boasts 16 usable effects to get the job done in any performance space. Add warmth or brightness to your mix with small, medium, and large room reverbs; or broaden your tone with rich, simple choruses and practical delays.

Live-Sound Tweaking

Four dedicated in-line compressors on channels 11 to 14 give you total dynamic control with just a twist of a knob. You can use these compressors on anything that you want to sit better in the mix, like vocals or bass.

Record and Stream Via USB

Integrated USB connectivity means you can hook up the ProFX22 to a laptop with your favorite DAW (or with free downloadable Tracktion software), and record the whole mix on the spot, archive your live performances, stream music, and enjoy instant track playback. Even better, Mackie's ProFX22 allows you to route your USB return through channels 21 and 22, so you can do playback from a laptop. The touch of a button is all it takes to stream the output of your performance software into the ProFX22 -- combine that signal with whatever else is connected to the mixer, and send it all back to the computer for recording.

Durable Construction

Housed in a solid steel chassis, this USB mixer can definitely endure the rigors of the road. Its impact-resistant sides, made of tough ABS, further protect it from all those accidental falls or bumps that are bound to happen at some point.

Plus, everything is housed in an ultra-tough enclosure with additional impact-resistant side-cheeks, protecting your investment from the rigors of the road.

Live Sound Toolbox

Let's face it. Audio gear is heavy. Getting a fully-loaded rack in and out of a van is not only arduous, it downright hurts. And its likely that you drag around a ton of gear that rarely, if ever, gets used. For most gigs, you just want it to sound good, but get done as easily as possible. Enter Mackie's ProFX Series, delivering a live sound toolbox that does just that. High-headroom mic preamps, great-sounding effects, smooth compression, flexible channel EQ, a built-in DI, plus precision GEQ to tune-up the room or monitor mix. Sounds good, right? Leave that extraneous gear at home. The ProFX22 comes with all these featuresit is truly the perfect live sound toolbox.

Gig-Ready RMFX Effects

The Mackie RMFX (Running Man FX) 32-bit effects processor brings gig-ready, useable effects to your mixes. Why scroll through hundreds of bizarre effects, like ghost ambience? Yeah, like anyone even knows what that means. Or how about winners like delay+phaser2, which youll never use in a million years. Those other mixers will leave your fingers raw from all the scrolling you have to do. The RMFX processor features 16 solid FX that are known for their utility and usability. Small, medium and large room reverbs with a mix of warm and bright characteristics puts your mix in the right space. Simple, rich choruses and an array of practical delays enable you to create professional mixes without requiring a two-hour sound check. Basically, they've delivered the choicest parts of a full rack of gear, right at your fingertips, that is easy to master, allowing you to look and sound really good at your next gig. Really, really good.

Smooth, Simple Compression

Compressors are a critical tool for both live sound and recording. The Mackie ProFX22 features four dedicated in-line compressors, delivering simple, sweet dynamic control with the single twist of a knob. Use the compressors on channels 11-14 for vocals, bass or anything that's dynamic and needs to sit a little better in the mix. Finally, you can stop obsessing about the vocal level and riding the fader like it's going out of style.

Record and Stream via USB

With all the right tools for the job, the Mackie ProFX22 allows you to create memorable mixes, but even with all those features, portability is paramount and you cant be burdened with lugging around additional equipment. No worries, integrated USB I/O takes the pain out of recording. Just connect the Mackie ProFX22 to a laptop, start up your included free download of Tracktion (or almost any DAW software out there) and you can record the whole mix. You can even stream music from your laptop during breaks. Once you get home, record more tracks or use the ProFX22 to playback some tunes during your next party. Unless you're anti-social, don't have the right kind of place for a party or are just sick of buying food and beverages for everyone. In that case, you can play back whatever talk-radio show you listen to when alone.

And with a push of a button, you can route your USB return through channels 21/22, allowing you to apply some EQ or easily integrate performance software into the set. Just stream the output of your performance software into the ProFX22. Combine that signal with anything plugged into the mixer, and send the whole thing back to the computer for recording. Archiving your integrated live performances has never been easier!

Legendary Mackie Durability

Mackie is known for building mixers that are built-like-a-tank and the ProFX22 is no exception. All of its tender bits are securely encased in a solid steel chassis. Not only that, the impact-resistant side-cheeks are made of ultra-tough ABS, adding extra protection where it is most likely to fall not that you drop things.

Budget Friendly

The ProFX Series Compact Effects Mixers strike the perfect balance. They offer all the right tools to get the job done well, sport the popular compact footprint that Mackie is known for, and are also the most budget-friendly of all the Mackie sound reinforcement mixers. The competition either doesn't have the expansive feature set of the ProFX Series, or they simply will not survive the test of time. You are investing in your mixer and the Mackie ProFX will be there for you at every gig, ready to roll.
